I was born and raised in Georgia. After spending many of my adult years living in various areas of the country I now call Buford my home. I spent 15 years working for corporate coffee houses and finally made the leap of faith and opened up my own coffee house 3 years ago. Most recently I have decided to follow my true calling and have founded a local non-profit Hometown Hope. As President and CEO I hope to serve the community by helping struggling families in need. |

I’ve spent 20 years working with various organizations from 1 person operations to companies with over 500 employees. I pride myself on my attention to detail and dedication to seeing people succeed. I do this by providing information in a format that is easily understood and useful. Some examples of my work include: · I successfully merged newly acquired companies into existing financial systems. This included creating new accounting procedures when the company had an increase of 45% in annual revenue. |
